Bug 542366 – x11-libs/libfm-extra-1.2.3: collision with x11-libs/libfm-1.2.3:0::gentoo

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

ERROR: preinst
This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other
packages (see list below). You can use a command such as `portageq
owners / <filename>` to identify the installed package that owns a
file. If portageq reports that only one package owns a file then do
NOT file a bug report. A bug report is only useful if it identifies at
least two or more packages that are known to install the same file(s).
If a collision occurs and you can not explain where the file came from
then you should simply ignore the collision since there is not enough
information to determine if a real problem exists. Please do NOT file
a bug report at http://bugs.gentoo.org unless you report exactly which
two packages install the same file(s). See
http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Knowledge_Base:Blockers for tips on how to
solve the problem. And once again, please do NOT file a bug report
unless you have completely understood the above message.

FWIW this was the origin :

t44 ~ # emerge --keep-going=y --newuse --changed-use --with-bdeps=y --update @world --ask               
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

That should fix it.

It still fails here. Even after resync.

'emerge -v1 libfm' fails with:

root@impala:/root(46)# emerge -v1 libfm

I've just made it a hard blocker, meaning you will have to manually unmerge libfm first to avoid file collisions.
